About Jhal muri

Jhal Muri is a popular street food snack from Bengal, a region spanning India and Bangladesh. This savory, spicy mixture features puffed rice (muri) as its base, combined with flavorful additions like chopped onions, tomatoes, green chilies, mustard oil, peanuts, roasted chickpeas, and a blend of aromatic spices. Often garnished with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime, it offers a burst of tangy, crunchy, and smoky flavors in every bite. Nutritionally, Jhal Muri is a relatively light snack, as puffed rice is low in calories and fat. The inclusion of raw vegetables and nuts adds fiber, plant-based proteins, and healthy fats. However, it may be high in sodium and oils depending on preparation, so portion control is key. Customizable and versatile, Jhal Muri is a flavorful example of wholesome yet indulgent Bengali street cuisine that can be enjoyed as a quick, guilt-free snack.
